What's it worth? 99 Firehawk #58. black 6 speed. factory 12 disc. firehawk floormats option. silver firehawk wheels & firehawk tires. never wrecked, 3rd owner. paint is 8/10. interior 9/10. 145k miles. previous owner blew the motor up, I bought it as is, and just recently installed a used forged 347 built for turbo (8.7:1 CR). -16cc Mahle dished pistons, eagle h beam rods, comp lifters, rollmaster timing chain, ported oil pump, upgraded bearings & gaskets, ARP bolts, Crane cam 220/224, .551/.551, 114, Precision dual springs, TSP push rods, 5.7 heads with exhaust side ported.. GM SS valves with valve job. Has hooker supercomp headers, bullet i pipe dumped, msd wires, stock clutch that was replaced about 3000 miles ago by previous owner. I also have a LS6 intake not installed. I was going to set this up for turbo but don't have the funds for the turbo kit anymore now that I'm going back to school. What do you guys think it would sell for if I decided to sell it?

145k on the body, and 8.7:1 cr.... its hard to tell what its worth. looks good tho 
btw, with that low of a CR its going to be hard to sell to someone that doesnt have plans to boost it in the near future, since im sure its taken a big hit in power that low N/A

I agree. however I believe someone once said you lose about 3 or 4% HP for every point below stock compression NA. in my calculations, assuming that's true and the same mods on stock CR, we'll also assume, if it put down 370, I think it will still put down near 350, 4 to 6 % isn't much (15-25 hp)
